ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I HAVE TURN SIGNALS ON MY 2006 DODGE RAM 2500, BUT I DO NOT HAVE FUNCTIONING TRAILER BRAKE OR SIGNAL LIGHTS THROUGH THE FACTORY INSTALLED TOWING PACKAGE. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM NO MATTER WHICH TRAILER I AM PULLING. CHECKING FOR VOLTAGE STATES THAT THERE IS LOW VOLTAGE DUE TO THE TPIM. THIS OCCURRED AT 84,000. ALSO, WHILE THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING THE IGINATION KEY CAN BE PULLED OUT. $1,000 IS ALOT TO REPAIR A TOWING PACKAGE AND I DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG THIS WOULD LAST.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
PURCHASED VEHICLE AT 100,000 IN 11/2011. MILES SEEMED IN GOOD CONDITION. QUICKLY STARTED DEATH WOBBLE. THOUGHT IT WAS WEAK TIRES. PURCHASED NEW (BETTER) TIRES, NO CHANGE. TOOK INTO OAK RIDGE, TN CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP FOR DEATH WOBBLE REPAIRS AT 122,351 MILES (TICKET CHCS182246). FINE UNTIL LAST MONTH 12/2016 AT APPROX 137,051 MILES. DEATH WOBBLE IS BACK (AND WORSE). EASILY OCCURS AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS WHEN ONE HITS BRIDGE EXPANSION JOINTS (ESPECIALLY ON A CURVE). BUT MUST ALSO WATCH (BE CAREFUL) ON SECONDARY ROADS AT SLOWER SPEEDS. DOES NOT NEED TO BE ON A CURVE IF THE BUMP IS BIG. IN MY OPINION ENGINEERING WISE, THINK THE ENGINE / FRONT END IS TOO HIGH/HEAVY FOR THE DEFAULT STEERING/SUSPENSION COMPONENTS TO HANDLE THE FORCES. IT SEEMS THE REPAIRS I AM OFFERED ARE MERELY FIXING SYMPTOMS AND NOT ROOT CAUSE. ALSO SEEMS THERE IS A WEALTH OF AFTER MARKET KNOWLEDGE / PARTS THAT RECOGNIZES THE ISSUES THAT CHRYSLER REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
RECALL P65 - DEALER WILL NOT GIVE ME THE INFORMATION ABOUT THE WORK TO BE COMPLETED AND NEITHER WILL CHRYLSER. DEALER CANNOT DO THE WORK BECAUSE HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO DRIVE AND I WORK. DEALER DID A RECALL BEFORE AND DID NOT SOLDIER LIKE HE SAID, BUT SPLICED WIRES, MADE A MESS, AND IS PROBABLY WHAT HE WANTS TO DO NOW. I CANNOT TRUST A DEALER TO FIX THE REPAIR. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO REPLACE THE WHOLE UNIT AND NOT SHORT CUT ME ON THE REPAIR. IF IT IS SO CRITICAL.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
THIS VEHICLE IS LISTED IN THE BUYBACK PROGRAM DUE TO REAR AXLE PINION NUT DEFECT. WAS OFFERED BLACKBOOK VALUE TO TRADE AND LOW BLUE BOOK TRADE VALUE FOR BUYBACK. VEHICLE EXCEEDS ALL CONDITION REQUIREMENTS. CHRYSLER HAS DEMANDED TO KNOW MY DEBT VALUE BEFORE APPRAISAL. FCA IS STALLING AND TRYING TO CAPITALIZE A PROFIT MARGIN ON MY TRUCK. DEALER USED PRESSURE TACTICS FOR PROCESS, STATED PROCESS WOULD TAKE EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME AND I SHOULD TRADE IT IN OR LET THEM REPAIR. HAVE RECEIVED 2 TRADE OFFERS FOR WHOLESALE VALUE, FROM 2 DIFFERENT FCA DEALERS. THE REAR AXLE HAS NOW LOCKED UP ONCE WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AT MY WORKPLACE, 1800 NORTH FRUITRIDGE AVE, TERRE HAUTE, IND. I WAS ABLE TO GET UNSEIZED AND HOME. UNABLE TO DRIVE DUE TO SAFETY ISSUE. FCA STATED THEY REQUIRED 3RD PARTY APPRAISAL BUT WILL NOT PROCEED UNTIL I RELEASE MY DEBT VALUE AND ACCOUNT NUMBER TO THEM. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! I EXPECT THEY WILL DE-VALUE MY TRUCK AS TO BE LESS THAN I OWE, THEREBY MAKING A BUYBACK IMPOSSIBLE AND FORCING ME TO LET THEM REPAIR HALF OF THE ISSUES WITH THIS TRUCK! I WILL BE LOSING ABOUT $8K FROM RETAIL VALUE. $ WHICH THEY ARE TRYING TO PROFIT FROM SELLING A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. IS THIS WHAT YOU ARE ALLOWING? I DON'T THINK SO. IN ADDITION TO REAR AXLE, THERE WAS A BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR RECALL WHICH THEY CLAIM IS RESOLVED. IT IS NOT! THE TRUCK'S HEATING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. THE BUYBACK OFFER GIVEN WAS FOR $19025.00 PLUS $1903 FOR 10% REPURCHASE, FOR A TOTAL OF $20928.00, BUT PENDING APPRAISAL WITH DEBT VALUE RELEASE. THIS CORPORATION IS MANIPULATING THE PROCESS TO INCREASE THEIR PROFITS WHILE RELEASING THEM OF LIABILITY. WHAT ARE YOU, AS THE OVERSEEING GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS? I WANT MY $ RETURNED FAIRLY. I WILL LOSE $10K EVEN WITH A RETAIL BUYBACK. I CANNOT LOSE $18K FOR A MANIPULATED, SCAM OF A DEAL!! THIS A FOLLOW UP TO A PREVIOUS COMPLAINT.
